Edinboro Castle, 57 Mornington Crescent

A lot of pubs that have gone gastro can get it badly wrong by neglecting the all important drink. The establishment is an exception. The delicious food is complemented by an interesting and varied selection of booze. There are carefully chosen wines, an excellent range of imported beers (with a few from the UK as well), and a choice of spirits that would be more at home in the cocktail bar of a top London hotel. Why have a plain gin and tonic when there is Bombay Sapphire, Tanqueray, Plymouth or Sloe Gin to choose from? This is no surprise given the pub's location on the fringes of Primrose Hill and in the effort to please the local clientele some of the original character of the place has had to be sacrificed. Although some features of the original Victorian pub remain, much has changed. Floral paint effects abound and lights resembling objets d'arte dangle from the ceiling. If all this gets too much there is a superb beer garden outside.
